Yep! Remove whatever you want from what she sent you and forward the rest next Monday, 2/28, along with the coupons you don't want from the 2/27 newspaper inserts.

Not quite sure how this happened.

Not coupon related, but extra money maker. DH had his sax from high school, something he has had out exactly once in our 17 years of marriage. Out of the blue he decides to get rid of it and wants me to sell it. In searching for info on it for me, he finds this site that buys used instruments. He sent in a description and they made an offer based on what he provided. They paid all shipping charges for us to send it to them. After they received it, they made a counter offer. Went up because it was a better model than they thought, but then deducted a bit because a couple keys needed work. All correspondence was done very quickly by email, but no pressure from them. Two weeks later and we have a check. Not what we would have gotten had we sold it on ebay, but we didn't have to do any work of having it appraised or anything. Just an idea if anyone has anything like that laying around that they don't want.

Well done! My DH played the sax in HS also. His got smashed inside the trunk of his car when someone rearended him and he never replaced it. His siblings say that was a wise decision considering how he played!

Yeah, like I said DH only pulled his out once. DS was 2 and ran to hide in his room.

YenSidRocks - I mailed your envie out today. It is a big envelope. (I was in Florida on Sunday at a gymnastics tournament, but I had my DH get a paper it only had one coupon insert in it.) I added some additional coupons as well.


DVCLaurie05 - Thank you. I received your envie on Friday.

My Mom passed away yesterday.
On Saturday, my sister took her into Manhattan so she could watch her "almost" 3 year old granddaughter take her swimming lesson. Then she treated my Mom to getting her hair and nails done and to a Chinese dinner. She looked beautiful when she got home late that night and had really enjoyed her day. On Sunday, my significant other and I took her out to a movie that she loved and for an Italian dinner that was also her favorite place. (She even bought 4 containers of sauce to take home so I could make pasta for her on Tuesday upon her return from the hospital). Monday morning she was scheduled to go back to the hospital to get two stents put in an artery. As we left the house shortly after 6 am, we were "treated" to the most beautiful, serene sight of 3 inches of freshly fallen undisturbed snow. We both commented how picturesque and perfect it was. And how silent the early morning seemed.

The Cardiac Unit fondly remembered Mom from her earlier 3 week stay right after Christmas. She was her usual friendly and humorous self.
When the surgeon inserted the stents, he found her arteries to be extremely stiff and surrounded by calcium buildup. The stents went in, the doctor and nurses removed their "scrubs" and felt very confident about the success of the procedure. They conversed with my mother and she even joked with them. (She was a lady with a HUGE personality and everyone who met her remembered her and took a liking to her. She had a GREAT sense of humor and shared it with everyone.) Suddenly out of nowhere her blood pressure shot up to 220/80 and she was rushed back into the operating room where she was immediately given meds to lower her pressure. It plummeted to ZERO. The doctors tried for over an hour to revive her; shocking her 5 times, doing CPR, and asperating the blood that had leaked into the sack surrounding her heart, but she did not wake up. Her surgeon (who is also my heart doctor) explained that sometimes when the arteries are so stiff, the plaque cracks like an eggshell with sharp edges and it can puncture an ever so tiny hole in the artery. The hole is so minute that it is naked to the human eye. It rarely happens, but happened to Mom. Blood leaked into the sack surrounding her heart and compressed her heart until she was gone...just like that.
I am so thankful that it happened while she was here visiting so she was not alone in Fla. and that she was not in any pain or did not suffer. It is just such a shock and disbelief that she is no longer here with us. The amount of pain that I feel is immeasurable.

We had her body sent to Fla. where we will have her wake and creamation. Since I will be staying in Fla. throughout the month of March in order to clean out her apartment, and get all her affairs in order, I will unfortunately have to "hop off the train" until I am able to return. Please keep my "spot" on the train warm for me! I will really miss reading all of your posts. Thank you for all your ealier well wishes for the speedy recovery of my beloved Mother.

Life is so fragile. How wonderful that you had such a special day with your Mother, remember that time. We will pray for you and your family in the coming days and weeks. Sounds like your Mother was a wonderful lady.

We will miss you while you are gone but will look forward to when you can join us again. Remember we are here for you if you need us.

NJSAM,

Not sure what to say except that I'm so sorry for your loss. Thankfully, your mother had some wonderful days with her family before her passing.

 

[mrsw94]

NJSAM,
Just wanted to say how sorry I am for your loss. You and your family are in our prayers.

Sent your first envie today! However the boneheaded husband went to the post office and since the line was long and the scale wasn't working, he just slapped 2 stamps on it and threw it in the box. If it comes to you postage due, let me know and I'll take it out of his check!

Enjoy! I've already started a new envie for next week!

 

[RangerPooh]

mrsw94, your coupons were mailed today.

Nancy, I was so sorry to read of your mom's passing. It was so wonderful that she had that precious time with you and your family. What a beautiful memory you shared with all of us!

As for hopping off the train, I'm going to temporarily reroute it for the next few weeks. Please drop us a note when you're ready to take your spot back. It will always be there waiting for you.
